In a large bowl, mix pumpkin, 2 eggs, spices, 1/2 cup sugar, and milk. Pour pumpkin mixture over the cake mix crust.

Answers: a friend of ours made a dessert called pumpkin crisp. She was going to give us the recipe but we left without getting it. I found a couple recipes that seem to be close to what we ate...the first one comes close but she added whipped topping on top after it cooled.

Pumpkin cheesecake. It was easy and delicious. the only alteration to the recipe I made was gingerbread graham crackers rather than regular graham crackers, and I added some ground up pecans to the graham crackers as well. I really think it made a difference in the recipe.
Crust:
1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 stick melted salted butter
Filling:
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, at room temperature
1 (15-ounce) can pureed pumpkin
3 eggs plus 1 egg yolk
1/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
For crust:
In medium bowl, combine crumbs, sugar and cinnamon. Add melted butter. Press down flat into a 9-inch springform pan. Set aside.
For filling:
Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, eggs, egg yolk, sour cream, sugar and the spices. Add flour and vanilla. Beat together until well combined.
Pour into crust. Spread out evenly and place oven for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let sit for 15 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours.
yes i did i had a swirl cheesecake that my best friend made. it was so good i did not share it with my husband. i need to get the recipe from her.
Not really a dessert, but a jello. Take one small box of orange jello. 1 small can of crushed pineapple, 1 small can of mandarin oranges one container (16 oz?) cottage cheese. Drain pineapple and oranges. Mix all ingredients except jello, then mix in jello, nothing else, no water or anything. Let set overnight in refrigerator. Its great!
this is something i tried and it was so good the family asked me to make it again for christmas. for the candy pieces, I simply threw a few Butterfinger candy bars in the blender for a few seconds. I got some nice chunky pieces, and powdery Butterfinger flakes that really helped to carry the flavor throughout the pie. It looked nice sprinkled on top of the pie, too
